My statement on today’s voting Sunday, which was just sent to the media. “The Liechtenstein electorate today approved joining the International Monetary Fund (IMF) with a turnout of 59.9% and 55.8% yes votes. I am convinced that with this yes, Liechtenstein has taken an important step towards greater security in the event of a crisis, more visibility and has made more solidarity in cooperation with the 190 other IMF member countries. In addition, cooperation with Switzerland on important issues can be strengthened. Democracy thrives on participation and discourse, which is why it was important to broaden the topic before the vote “We also take the critical voices seriously and will be an active member of the IWF, working for improvements, just as we do in the other international organizations of which Liechtenstein is a member.” Many thanks to everyone who has worked in the background and foreground on IMF accession over the last 3 years, especially the Liechtenstein delegation Simon Biederman and Martin Gächter. Many thanks also to everyone who actively participated in the discussion over the last few weeks.
